  • Question 1
    4 / -1

    Which of the following statements are correct?
    (i) Glucose has high threshold value.
    (ii) Urine is concentrated in Henle's loop.
    (iii) Haemodialyser removes urea, uric acid, glucose and plasma proteins.
    (iv) In glomerulus, urea, uric acid, water, glucose and plasma proteins are filtered out.

    Solution

    Threshold value of a substance is its highest concentration in the blood upto which it is totally reabsorbed from the glomerular filtrate. Substances like glucose and amino acids are those substances that are reabsorbed actively into the blood by the active transport and therefore they do not appear in the urine. The threshold value of glucose is about 180 mg per 100 ml of blood. When this value is exceeded, glucose begins to appear in the urine.
    Counter current mechanism in loop of Henle and vasa recta helps to concentrate the urine. Haemodialyser does not remove glucose and plasma proteins. In glomerulus, plasma proteins are not filtered out.

  • Question 2
    4 / -1

    In peritoneal dialysis

    Solution

    Dialysis is of two types : haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis uses a natural filter inside the body i.e. peritoneal membrane to remove wastes and extra fluid from the body. The dialysis fluid fills the belly and pulls out wastes and extra fluid from the body. Blood is not removed from the body as in the case of haemodialysis.

  • Question 3
    4 / -1

    Read the given statements regarding human excretory system and select the correct ones.
    (i) Presence of glucose in urine is known as uremia.
    (ii) Distal convoluted tubule (DCT) selectively secretes hydrogen ions, ammonia and potassium ions anto the filtrate.
    (iii) Macula densa formed by cellular modifications in the distal convoluted tubule and the afferent arteriole at their contact location.
    (iv) Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) can cause vasoconstriction when blood flow is low to the atria of the heart.

    Solution

    K+, H+, NH3 and HCO3- ions a re secreted by active transport into the filtrate in the DCT. Juxtaglomerular apparatus is a sensitive region formed by cellular modifications in the DCT and the afferent arteriole at their contact location. Juxtaglomerular apparatus consists of juxtaglomerular cells, macula densa and lacis cells. Presence of glucose in the urine is called glycosuria. ANF can cause vasodilation when blood flow is high to the atria of the heart.

  • Question 4
    4 / -1

    Match Column-I with Column-II and select the correct option from the codes given below.

  • Question 5
    4 / -1

    Which one of the following is correct with reference to haemodialysis?

    Solution

    Haemodialysis is done in the patients whose kidneys become completely non-functional. Haemodialysis is the process of diffusion across a semipermeable membrane to remove unwanted substances from the blood while adding derivable components. The dialysis unit consists of a coiled cellophane tube kept in the dialysing fluid. The membrane of the tube is impermeable to blood cells and proteins but permeable to urea, uric acid, creatinine and mineral ions.

  • Question 6
    4 / -1

    What will happen if one kidney is removed from the body of a human being?

    Solution

    If one kidney is removed, the other kidney will take over the work of the removed kidney and thus nothing will happen to the person and he will survive.

  • Question 7
    4 / -1

    Which one of the following is not normally excreted in urine?

    Solution

    Haemoglobin is not normally excreted in urine. If haemoglobin gets excreted in urine, the condition is known as haemoglobinuria.

  • Question 8
    4 / -1

    A person is undergoing prolonged fasting. His urine would contain abnormal quantities of 

    Solution

    Under fasting conditions, liver produces large amount of ketone bodies which are associated with high rate of fatty acid oxidation. Presence of excess ketone bodies in urine is termed as ketonuria.

  • Question 9
    4 / -1

    Diuresis is the condition in which 

  • Question 10
    4 / -1

    An X-ray of the lower abdomen shows a shadow in the region of the ureter suspected to be an ureteric calculus. A possible clinical symptom would be
